    @virginmedia hi, could you advise the best method to speak to someone regards a request for return of kit after house move? Chat bot does not help, need to contact an agent thanks

  • worksopchap worksopchap (@worksopchap) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia I can’t find the last message where this thread started - I’ll go to the bot system - I’m a returning customer - need to reactivate my account etc

  • worksopchap worksopchap (@worksopchap) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia can you help me merge my accounts ? I am a new customer and can’t access the app

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

  • michaeltruefitt Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

  • DjDno Dean Blavins (@DjDno) reported from Chadwell, England

    Ffs, there it goes again!! Sort your **** out @virginmedia

  • LeFuzzyOtter Ann Chapman (@LeFuzzyOtter) reported from Hinckley, England

    Is anyone else having issues with @virginmedia? Internet is being very spotty and seems others are having issues too according to Down Detector.

  • W4lshy_85 jennie walsh (@W4lshy_85) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia once again absolute outstanding useless customer care 👌🏻 #virginmedia #gotosky 👍🏼

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    @virginmedia If you can sort out the compensation for the 2 weeks loss of service, that'd be great 👍

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    FINALLY!!! After raising a serious complaint with @virginmedia with the prospect of the ombudsman getting involved... They've finally got my services up and running Now all that remains is for them to sort out some compensation and then we can pretend this never happened

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    2 weeks now and I still haven't got any service from @virginmedia!!!! I'm starting to think they're doing this on purpose

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    I'm seriously considering cancelling @virginmedia!!! I'm getting ****** off with them. 11 days without a service is unacceptable!!!

  • DenhamKite Denham Kite (@DenhamKite) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia - what number do I call to talk to a real person to sort this rubbish before I cancel?

  • ollieg21296 Ollie (@ollieg21296) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

  • iamthemummy julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

  • Mark_Edwards73 Mark Edwards (@Mark_Edwards73) reported

    @MartinezPanedaE @virginmedia Snap same issue

  • MartinezPanedaE Emilio Martínez-Pañeda (@MartinezPanedaE) reported

    Very disappointed w/ @virginmedia. They suddenly increase my bill and when I try to access my account they say that the password is not correct (it is). I ask for the pass to be reset but the reset email never arrives. I call and they say IT will fix it in 48, it has been a week!

  • Gmcswineyyy gerardmcswiney (@Gmcswineyyy) reported

    @Davidlmarriott @virginmedia Virgin is hopeless, my broadband is down again, happened a few months back,

  • In4ThePips In4ThePips (@In4ThePips) reported

    @virginmedia Its still been really bad! I understand about "total loss" but what about the length of time its been when it amounts to around 3 days total loss! its still unacceptable!

  • w_thompson_w Will Thompson (@w_thompson_w) reported

    @virginmedia Why is your estimated fix time before the current time on the screenshot?

  • edward036 Duncan Smith (@edward036) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down again, done all the troubleshooting bits, checked postcode and no known issues…. Getting a bit too frequent now, BT calling I think, my neighbour switched to them as well.

  • nails70 tired (@nails70) reported

    Your engineer confirmed it was external & submitted an urgent request—but no one turned up. No updates since. I work from home and this is now affecting my income. Please sort this ASAP and issue compensation. #VirginMedia

  • nails70 tired (@nails70) reported

    @virginmedia A week without service. A spade went through your cable in my garden—your engineer later confirmed it was laid just under topsoil. I called twice, clearly reported it as external, yet you sent an internal engineer. Still not fixed.

  • catsmum27 Kat (@catsmum27) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, Bewbush Patch Management Team @crawleybc should be able to assist, monitor the frequency of this issue occurring within residential neighbourhoods & instigate a proficient resolution.

  • acfwilson acfwilson (@acfwilson) reported

    @virginmedia terrible service. Changing suppliers ASAP, broadband is EXPENSIVE and awful. Customer Service non existent.
